[cctalk] Atari PLATO was Re: Re: Age of Tape Formats?

Yes, though not exactly. The TI implementation was a true, full Micro-TUTOR runtime that ran Off-Line System lessons directly. Atari had a PLATO cartridge that could connect to a server via modem ("PLATO Homelink") and was arguably more functional than the contemporary PC Homelink, but the Micro-PLATO (*not* Micro-TUTOR) lessons on floppy disk for Apple II and Atari were ported to the 6502 and had no runtime or interpreter per se. -- ------------------------------------ personal: http://www.cameronkaiser.com/ -- Cameron Kaiser * Floodgap Systems * www.floodgap.com * ckaiser(a)floodgap.com -- You are not ready! ---------------------------------------------------------
